Authorities have arrested two Waynesburg residents in the shooting death of a man and a woman whose bodies were found on Valentine’s Day. According to the court documents, 28-year-old Cortland Rogers and 23-year-old Shawna Smith are facing multiple charges, including criminal homicide, conspiracy to commit homicide and burglary. The charges stem from the murder of 54-year-old Kevin Lamar Williford and 47-year-old Judy Butler Hunter. The two were found by their landlord in their second floor apartment on South Morris Street. According to the report, Rogers told police that Smith killed Williford, while Smith said that Rogers shot both of them. Police say Hunter and Williford had been shot in the head and their bodies were in advanced stages of decomposition, leading them to believe they had been dead for a long period of time. Smith reportedly told police that she and Rogers had gone to the couple’s apartment to confront Williford about missing jewelry and unpaid drug money. The charges were filed against the two while they were already in jail in Greene County. Authorities say they were being held there for allegedly tying up and assaulting a woman at their home at 41 Wood Street.
